January 22, 200719 yr Yup. I'm thinking of getting a new pet, i used to have cat named Smokey ( ) but we had to put him to sleep, and having a pet was one of my favorite things in my life, its been around 1 and a half years and im thinking of getting a new pet. I'm looking for something not too expensive, and easy to take care of (my parents said they wouldnt if i wanted one :P ) and cause they would take of it while i was at camp. I would also like a pet that is cute, and maybe even fun to play with \ i <3 animals kay? I was thinking of these maybe: -Turtle (One of my TOP choices :) ) -Guinea Pig -Gerbil/Hamster
January 22, 200719 yr Guinea Pigs are much better then Hamsters. They love to hug and are awake in the day.
January 22, 200719 yr Author Guinea Pigs are much better then Hamsters. They love to hug and are awake in the day. Arn't Guinea Pigs much bigger then Hamsters too? Cause i dont want a little furball that i can hold in my palm :? :lol:
January 22, 200719 yr I personally have two cats, and I am an animal person, so I feel for your loss. Now, onto buisness - Turtles and Hampsters / Gerbils are fine, but Guinea Pigs squeal and cry at night, and could be a problem. But, your choice, so have fun with whatever you choose. Tetris is about using the equal force of the working power to build up the glorious people's republic of Russia....
January 22, 200719 yr Turtles, they live a long time :) With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed.
January 22, 200719 yr Author Turtles, they live a long time :) 300 years is definatly enough for me :P Get a Prairie Dog or Armadillo. : Ooo Armadillo : I don't know much about them but they look cool, do they sell them at pet stores...? :-s lol
January 22, 200719 yr Get a Prairie Dog or Armadillo. : Ooo Armadillo : I don't know much about them but they look cool, do they sell them at pet stores...? :-s lol I know, they're sooo cute!! You can get them on the side of the road in Texas, and other southern states. You could get a jellyfish or hammerhead shark. :P Me doing staff.
January 22, 200719 yr I like my fish. If I don't feel like bothering with them, I barely have to. Drop in some food once a day, and if you miss a day it's not that big of deal. They also make for good decorations :P .

January 22, 200719 yr Author I like cats. But if I were you i'd go for a guinea pig :) My parents dont want another cat, it would rip up the furniture, and we dont want to de-claw another cat like we did our last one because its so cruel to them #-o imagine having your nails taken out them made so they dont grow back *OUCH* (fyi, my parents arnt cruel, we got the cat when my sisters and I were babies, they didnt want us getting scratched O:) ) and ya, im leaning heavily over on the Guinea Pig/Turtle side after seeing these responses (The_Bacon_Man's response isnt very comforting :P ) \ EDIT: Get a Prairie Dog or Armadillo. : Ooo Armadillo : I don't know much about them but they look cool, do they sell them at pet stores...? :-s lol I know, they're sooo cute!! You can get them on the side of the road in Texas, and other southern states. You could get a jellyfish or hammerhead shark. :P Too bad I live in Massachusetts, I doubt I'm gonna go to Texas to get an Armadillo :-w why dont you send that hammerhead shark to me via UPS? kay?
January 22, 200719 yr If a pet store sold ardvarks (ant eaters) I would get that. Seriously, I love them.

K, will do. But first I must make sure you have a huge round tank. Sharks of any kind always have to swim in a loop, they can never hit a wall, else they will die. Me doing staff.
January 22, 200719 yr Get a dog. It's been fully researched that it makes you live longer :P If not, get a: So cute :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
January 22, 200719 yr Turtles ftw I have one named sparky : http://www.draynor.net/code/bar/Noobin\Please join my very new up and coming forumshttp://s3.freepowerboards.com/runeboards Feel free to AIM or MSNM me anytime
January 22, 200719 yr Sugar gliders. But I'd rather recommend dogs since sugar gliders are more sensitive. They need to live in a pair or else they'll die. They also need huge cages to be able to move around with. But if anything else fails, go to China and steal one of these :shock: :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
January 22, 200719 yr Iguana.. Though make sure you buy him at under a month or two old. They're usually $15 and a great pet. They can be bathroom trained (As easily as a dog). They usually grow around 5-6'. They eat mostly vegetables/fruits, but a little meat won't do much harm -- they can't digest animal proteins very well. Unlike most pet 'lizards,' like Chameleons, Bearded Lizards, etc, you can handle them as much as you want and it won't go into shock, or die. The more you handle him and pay attention the nicer he will be. If you ignore him he will think that wherever he is most of the time is his territory, and likely not want you in it.. :P They swim very well, can hold breath for a while. (20 min or so) They usually just lie around, stick them outside for a while everyday.. Make sure they have a UVB light, and if you can't put him outside you'll need a UVA light aswell. I also suggest to let your Iguana 'free-roam' -- as in he can wonder wherever like a dog. At first I kept mine caged up until about 4 months, I felt that he was big enough. He usually just stays in a little custom 'ledge' I built, but he comes down when he's hungry/thirsty or wants out What can I say, I've had an Iguana for around nine years now and it's one of the most enjoyable pets I've ever had right next to my dogs.

January 22, 200719 yr Guinea Pigs and Hamsters smell bad. And it is also a pain to clean their cages. But other than that, they are cool. If you get more than 1 Guinea Pig, don't get a male and female. They are like rabbits. You'll have little Guinea Pigs running all over the place. My sister had a male and female and it seemed like a cannon. The mother just kept shooting them out. 122 Combat : 99 Hits : 99 Attack : 99 Strength97/99 Defence : 99 Fletching : 99 Woodcutting
January 22, 200719 yr Guinea Pigs and Hamsters smell bad. Hamsters can be trained to use a jar as a toilet, this way they're not so smelly! The Poison Fairy
